Oregon State Police are asking the public’s help in finding the person who stole a pickup truck, crashed it into a guardrail west of Prineville, Oregon, and fled the scene, leaving the truck partly submerged in an irrigation canal.
A 48-year-old Prineville woman reported that her truck had been stolen sometime late on October 14, 2009. The next morning, according to KOHD.com, state troopers responded to a single-car crash on Highway 370, also known as O’Neil Highway, and discovered the vehicle abandoned and partially sunk in a shallow canal.
Preliminary investigation by state police revealed that the red 1993 Ford Ranger truck struck a guardrail while traveling east on the highway, left the road, and finally came to rest on its side in the canal. As of October 20, the unidentified driver had not been found.
Police are asking anyone who has information on the incident to contact Senior Trooper Russo at 541-388-6213, ext. 545.
